Abstract
A processor acquires feature information of a target email, among email that has already been transmitted from the information processing apparatus, the target email specified by an operation of a user of the information processing apparatus as email to be restricted from viewing-access by a user of a receiving-side apparatus. The processor transmits feature information of the target email to an apparatus that receives information for identifying a removal target for a security measure system. The target email is designated as a removal target by the security measure system for the receiving-side apparatus.
Claims5
An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a processor, which is configured to:
- acquire feature information of a target email, among email that has already been transmitted from the information processing apparatus, the target email specified by an operation of a user of the information processing apparatus as email to be restricted from viewing-access by a user of a receiving-side apparatus;
- and
- transmit feature information of the target email to an apparatus that receives information for identifying a removal target for a security measure system,
- wherein the target email is designated as a removal target by the security measure system for the receiving-side apparatus.
An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a registration request receiver, which is on a computer terminal that receives a request for registering feature information of a target email, among email that has already been transmitted from a transmitting-side apparatus, the target email specified by an operation of a user of the transmitting-side apparatus as email to be viewing-access restricted from a user of a receiving-side apparatus;
- and
- a feature information provider that processes and provides feature information of the target email to an apparatus or an unit that generates a definition file of a security measure system, so to detect the target email as a removal target by the security measure system for the receiving-side apparatus.
A method of viewing-access restricting email, comprising:
- acquiring, by a processor, feature information of a target email, among email that has already been transmitted from a transmitting-side apparatus, the target email specified by an operation of a user of the transmitting-side apparatus as email to be restricted from viewing-access by a user of a receiving-side apparatus;
- and
- transmitting, by the processor, feature information of the target email to an apparatus that receives information for identifying a removal target for a security measure system.
A method of restricting viewing access, comprising:
- receiving a request for registering feature information of a target email, among email that has already been transmitted from a transmitting-side apparatus, the target email specified by an operation of a user of the transmitting-side apparatus as email to be viewing-access restricted from a user of a receiving-side apparatus;
- and
- providing feature information of the target email to an apparatus or an unit that generates a definition file of a security measure system, so to detect the target email as a removal target by the security measure system for the receiving-side apparatus.
A computer program embedded non-transitory computer-readable recording medium, comprising:
- a module that causes a dedicated processor to acquire feature information of a target email, among email that has already been transmitted from a transmitting-side apparatus, the target email specified by an operation of a user of the information processing apparatus as email to be restricted from viewing-access by a user of a receiving-side apparatus;
- and
- a module that causes the dedicated processor to transmit, over a network, feature information of the target email to an apparatus that receives information for identifying a removal target for a security measure system, wherein the target email is designated as a removal target by the security measure system for the receiving-side apparatus.
